Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a helicopter.
  • Helicopters are known substantially comprising a fuselage; a main rotor rotating about a first axis and fitted to a top portion of the fuselage; and an antitorque rotor located at the tail end of the helicopter and rotating about a second axis crosswise to the first.
  • Known helicopters also comprise at least one engine; and a transmission for transmitting motion from the engine to the main rotor.
  • the engine has an intake conduit for a first airflow of fresh air from the outside; and an exhaust conduit for externally discharging high-temperature burnt gas.
  • the helicopter also comprises a transmission housing; and an inlet connecting the housing to the outside to produce a second airflow of fresh air by which to cool the transmission either directly or with the interposition of a radiator.
  • thermodynamic efficiency of the engine and transmission cooling efficiency are affected by the attitude, and particularly the yaw angle, of the helicopter.
  • Variations in yaw angle also affect the degree of turbulence in the first airflow, thus affecting the thermodynamic efficiency of the engine.
  • a need is felt within the industry to achieve as constant a flow as possible of the first and second airflow, and to minimize turbulence in the first airflow over a wide attitude range, so as to achieve optimum thermodynamic efficiency of the engine and effectively cool the transmission within said range.
  • US 4830312 discloses a helicopter in which combustion air and cooling air for an oil cooler and an intercooler is drawn through a common inlet grill.
  • GB1201096 discloses inlet arrangements in a turboprop engine installation.
  • Number 1 in Figure 1 indicates a helicopter substantially comprising a fuselage 2 with a nose 5; a main rotor 3 fitted to the top of fuselage 2 and rotating about an axis A; and a tail rotor 4 fitted to a tail fin projecting from fuselage 2 at the opposite end to nose 5, and rotating about a second axis crosswise to axis A.
  • Helicopter 1 comprises two engines 6 (only one shown in Figure 6 ) housed in respective housings defined by a supporting body 7 and located alongside respective sides 8 of fuselage 2.
  • Helicopter 1 comprises two transmissions 9 (only one shown in Figure 6 ) connecting the output shafts of respective engines 6 to a shaft 10 (only shown partly in Figures 3 , 4 , 5 ) for rotating main rotor 3 about axis A. More specifically, the output shafts of engines 6 extend along respective axes B (only one shown in Figure 6 ).
  • Each engine 6 performs in the same way as an open-thermodynamic-cycle gas turbine, and substantially comprises ( Figure 6 ) :
  • Each engine 6 also comprises :
  • helicopter 1 advantageously comprises an air intake 20, in turn comprising :
  • air intakes 20 are located alongside respective sides 8, and project towards nose 5 from a front end 25 of supporting body 7 facing nose 5.
  • end 25 of supporting body 7 has two edges 26 alongside fuselage 2; and two edges 27 extending crosswise to fuselage 2 and between respective facing ends of edges 26.
  • Air intakes 20 are preferably integral with each other.
  • Air intakes 20 obviously being identical, only one is described below for the sake of simplicity.
  • air intake 20 comprises ( Figures 2 to 5 ) :
  • the deflecting means are defined by edge 30 which performs substantially in the same way as the leading edge of a wing to divert the first and second airflow onto surfaces 32 and 31 respectively of wall 29.
  • contour of wall 29 is also defined by two edges 33 converging in edge 30 in the direction from end 25 to edge 30.
  • Main portion 37 of wall 35 extends from end portion 36 towards nose 5 of fuselage 2.
  • End portion 36 is larger than main portion 37 in a direction parallel to edge 27, and is smaller than main portion 37 lengthwise of fuselage 2.
  • End portion 36 of each wall 35 is integral with end portion 36 of the other wall 35 ( Figure 2 ).
  • Main portion 37 has a curved first end edge 38 cooperating with surface 32; and a curved second edge 39 opposite edge 38 and at a distance from surface 32.
  • edge 38 comprises an end portion 40 parallel to edge 30 and interposed between edge 30 and end portion 36; and two portions 41 converging towards edge 30 in the direction from end portion 36 to edge 30.
  • Portions 41 are located on opposite sides of portion 40.
  • Edge 39 is curved and substantially comprises an arc-shaped portion 42 on the side facing end 25; and a portion 43 elongated towards edge 30, connected to portion 42, and located on the side facing portion 40.
  • portion 42 extends along an arc of roughly 180°, and portion 43 is located outside the sector subtended by portion 42.
  • edge 39 extends obliquely with respect to axis A.
  • the contour of inlet 21 comprises an arc-shaped first portion 45; and a second portion 46 defining a tip located outside the circumference defined by portion 45.
  • Portion 45 is located on the side facing end 25, and portion 46 on the side facing portion 40.
  • portion 46 comprises two segments converging in the direction from portion 45 to portion 40, and having first ends connected to respective ends of portion 45, and second ends opposite the first ends and connected to each other.
  • Portion 46 is located outside the sector defined by portion 45.
  • Inlet 21 is closer than edge 39 to surface 32.
  • main portion 37 of edge 35 extends at increasing distances from surface 32 in the direction from edge 38 to edge 39, and at decreasing distances from surface 32 in the direction from edge 39 to inlet 21 ( Figure 3 ).
  • the thickness of main portion 37 increases in the direction from edge 38 to edge 39, and decreases in the direction from edge 39 to inlet 21.
  • the projection of the contour of inlet 21 onto surface 32 lies within the projection of the contour of edge 39 onto surface 32.
  • the main portion 52 of wall 50 comprises two surfaces 53 defining respective inlets 22 and converging in a rounded edge 54 in the direction from end portion 51 to edge 30 of wall 29.
  • Inlets 22 in the example shown are rectangular and open into respective conduits 55 ( Figure 5 ) terminating inside housing 23 of transmission 9 ( Figure 6 ).
  • edge 54 is interposed between end 25 and edge 30.
  • the guide means of each air intake 20 comprise :
  • each path Q is bounded laterally by a relative side 8 and by a relative surface 31, and each path P extends on the opposite side of relative wall 29 to relative path Q.
  • Engine 6 also comprises a tapping device 18 surrounding compressor 11 and for drawing off a quota (indicated I in Figure 6 ) of the first airflow upstream from compressor 11, and feeding quota I to nozzle 15.
  • a tapping device 18 surrounding compressor 11 and for drawing off a quota (indicated I in Figure 6 ) of the first airflow upstream from compressor 11, and feeding quota I to nozzle 15.
  • Fresh-air quota I thus mixes with the hot burnt gas flowing through nozzle 15 to cool the exhaust gas from opening 17 and so reduce the overall radiation emitted by helicopter 1 in the infrared frequency.
  • conduit 16 also functions as an ejector by activating, by means of the gas accelerated in nozzle 15, an airflow which originates in housing 23, cools transmission 9 to a certain extent, and eventually mixes with the burnt gas inside conduit 16.
  • airflow F strikes edges 30 of walls 29, and is diverted by edges 30 to form first and second airflows along respective paths P, Q.
  • first airflows flow along surfaces 32 of relative walls 29 and along the portions of walls 35 interposed between surfaces 32 and respective inlets 21, and finally through inlets 21 and along intake conduits 12 of engines 6.
  • devices 18 draw off respective quotas I of the first airflows upstream from respective compressors 11, and feed them directly to nozzles 15. More specifically, the drawn-off quotas I are less than the respective remaining portions (indicated L in Figure 6 ) of the respective first airflows.
  • the remaining portions L of the first airflows are compressed by respective compressors 11, and react with the fuel inside respective combustion chambers 13 to produce hot pressurized burnt gas, which expands inside respective turbines 14 and flows along nozzles 15 to rotate the output shafts of engines 6 about respective axes A.
  • Transmissions 9 transmit motion from the output shafts of engines 6 to the drive shaft 10 of rotor 3.
  • the second airflows flow along surfaces 31 of relative walls 29, along the portions of surfaces 53 interposed between inlets 22 and relative edges 54, and finally through inlets 22 and along conduits 55 to housings 23 of transmissions 9, where they cool transmissions 9 either directly or by means of a radiator.
  • edge 30 of each air intake 20 divides the airflow F on it into a first and second airflow, which reach respective inlets 21, 22 along separate paths P, Q.
  • inlets 22 are located on the fuselage 2 side, and inlets 21 on the opposite side to fuselage 2, the turbulence generated by aerodynamic interaction between helicopter 1 and airflow F is more predominant in the second airflows than in the first.
  • Paths P and Q being separate prevents this turbulence from being transmitted to the first airflows.
  • the first airflow along conduit 12 and predominantly drawn by compressor 11 is therefore substantially laminar, and so improves the efficiency of engines 6 over a wide range of yaw angles of helicopter 1.
  • engines 6 since air intake by engines 6 is constant, in quantity and flow conditions, over a wide range of yaw angles of helicopter 1, engines 6 have similar operating temperatures, and can therefore be coupled in temperature to improve the overall performance of helicopter 1.
  • Another advantage of separating paths P and Q lies in the second airflows being undisturbed by the first, and so being substantially constant over a wide range of yaw angles of helicopter 1, thus greatly reducing the risk of in-mission overheating of transmission 9.
  • Walls 35, 50 having no sharp curves at respective inlets 21, 22 greatly reduces pressure losses in the first and second airflow.
  • air intake 20 provides, with a single device, for drawing in both first and second airflows for supplying compressors 11 of engines 6 and cooling transmissions 9 and the exhaust gas respectively.
  • helicopter 1 may have one engine 6 and one air intake 20.
  • Walls 53 may have one inlet 22.
  • inlets 21, 22 and conduits 12, 16 may be other than as shown.
